There
are very few feelings like those which accompany
a driver piloting an elegant, refined Bentley
sedan, coupe or convertible down the road. The
powerful statement of luxury and performance
which is made by these British cars is without
equal in the world of exotic car rental.
To begin with, the interior of each Bentley
is incredibly well equipped. Whether a stretched
limousine or powerful grand touring coupe,
being inside a Bentley provides a sense of
security and solidity which is similar to
stepping into a bank vault. This vault, however,
is trimmed in the finest of exotic woods and
appointed with full-size television screens,
fields of creamy leather and elegantly styled
control surfaces which almost seem to anticipate
the needs of driver and passenger alike. Since
each vehicle is assembled by hand, there are
no limits to the different colors, interior
styles or equipment which can be installed
in one of these impressive automobiles.
Of course, the interior of a vehicle should
complement the engine and chassis that it
is paired with, and in this area Bentley once
again shines like a beacon in luxury car rental.
With most models offering over 500 horsepower
and almost limitless wells of torque, these
luxury automobiles are capable of keeping
up with some of the most powerful and expensive
sports cars on the planet. However, even during
high speed motoring the sense of composure,
luxury and safety never disappears –
the sporting performance does not come at
the expense of comfort but rather instead
feels like a natural extension of the car’s
capabilities. Each Bentley seems to urge the
driver to push it harder, faster, and closer
to an edge which never actually materializes.
Driving a Bentley is an experience
which ranks as one of the most satisfying
and pleasurable on modern roads. Even after
a few minutes behind the wheel it is clear
what makes these vehicles so special and so
separate from the standard expectations that
come with a luxury automobile.
